 * Symbol confirmed.svg I agree that ALT1 and that amazing picture will make a terrific lead hook for Christmas. Nominated one day after receiving GA icon. New enough, long enough, well referenced, neutrally written, no close paraphrasing seen. ALT1 hook refs verified and cited inline. QPQ done. Image is freely licensed. ALT1 good to go.
